5.2.3.1 Device Configuration
The ability to calibrate and configure other devices on the bus is a major portion of this manual. For
this reason it has been given an entire section. See section 6 for details.
5.2.3.2 Device Selection
The “Device Selection…” menu allows you to enable and disable the display of data from individual
NMEA 2000
®
devices. In this manner, multiple devices of the same type may be used in redundant
and fail-safe configurations. A typical “Device Selection…” menu for a network configuration can be
seen in Figure 12 below.
NOTE: Now that you can select instances for each displayed parameter, you do not need to configure
this menu. This menu entry is retained for backward compatibility.
